Enjoyable holiday weekend

My family loved our stay at the Mermaid Cottage! The proximity to the beach is great. Traffic can be a bit heavy getting in and out of Newport town, especially on a holiday weekend. Lots of room for families, the spacious basement was used as well. Overall I’d recommend the cottage to anyone looking to visit the area.

Newport Trip

The property was great and everything that's posted about this property is very accurate. Jackie and her husband were so easy to work with and if I had any issues they would get back to me within 2 minutes. I would tell anyone to rent this place because it has everything you need plus tons of character and charm!! The location was perfect we were 3 minutes from second beach and 5 minutes with traffic to first beach.

An idyllic location that was walkable to the beach and cute cafes/ restaurants— and for long walkers like me, I was able to go to the seaport every morning, too! It was wonderful for a group stay and highly recommend.
